Invitation by the University of Würzburg

Professor Ulrike Holzgrabe from the Institute of Pharmacy and Foold Chemistry at the University of Würzburg.Dear Colleagues,
 
Due to the progressing globalization counterfeit drugs become more and more an issue. Active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients are no longer produced in the pharmaceutical companies who are the innovators of the drugs. The production sites of the APIs and formulated products are often in China and India. Customs all over the world fish illegally produced drugs out more frequently. Drugs are increasingly sold via the internet which makes it much easier to put counterfeits into circulation.

Thus, strategies against counterfeited APIs become more important. Hence, we put a program together dealing with the implementation of counterfeit protection strategies and systems. Experts from USA and Europe, and from different institutions of both industries and regulatory authorities will be present for discussions and exchange of experiences on the various aspects of anticounterfeiting activities.

It will be a great pleasure for me to welcome you in Würzburg on behalf of the Institute of Pharmacy and Food Chemistry of our university.

Prof. Dr. Ulrike Holzgrabe
Chair of Pharmaceutical Chemistry
University of Würzburg
